The multiview images captured by toed-in camera array can reproduce the 3D scene vividly with appropriate positive, negative, and zero disparities. However, it is a challenging task to adjust the depth of the scene according to requirements of visual effects. In this paper, we propose a novel disparity control method based on projection to solve this problem. With the relationship between the world coordinate system and camera coordinate system, the zero disparity point in reference view is projected into other views. Thus, disparities of different views are obtained through matched corresponding points and views are shifted with calculated disparities. The proposed method is easy to implement, and the depth of toed-in multiview images can be adjusted as requirements. Experiment results show that the proposed method is effective in comparison to the conventional method, and the processed multiview images present desirable stereoscopic visual quality.
